Hyperlink

In ADT I can Hyperlink (Ctrl-K) any thing in my drawing to any file or web site. I use this for things like the Key Plan. When I click on a certain area of the Key Plan it will open the drawing for that area of the building...you get the idea and can see the potential I 'm sure.

Now that you can copy and paste Linked Objects (OLE) into PlotMaker, is there going to be a way to do something like Hyperlinking in ArchiCAD?

What I really want is to get my .pdf's into PlatMaker and Hyperlink them there. The new Acrobat 6.0 Pro can handle layers now. If ArchiCAD and PlotMaker could import .pdf's and handle Hyperlinking, it could generate a devistating blow to the competition.

Are there other methods in ArchiCAD to do something similar to what I described above?

Did this feature disappear in version 10? It was always a mystery to me how it worked in the first place. I can't find any documentation on it.

This feature is still alive, well, and duel platform in 2012 (looks like it was added to Macs some years ago).

It came up in a post I wrote for the BIM Engine Blog...

Thanks Karl for pointing this out to me!
